Fantastic experience- highly recommend
We loved our stay. The room was clean and spacious and the turn down service was a lovely touch. The evening meal, Swilcan, was delicious. Steak cooked to perfection! The bed was huge and so comfortable. The spa was phenomenal- we loved the thermal suite. Again, the breakfast was also fantastic- wonderful variety and spectacular views. All the staff were friendly and attentive. We will definitely be returning!
